dybincka [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a= 1 m/s^2

Explanation:

a= (Vf-Vi)/t

a=(2.5m/s - 0m/s)/2.5 s

a=2.5 m/s / 2.5 s

a= 1 m/s^2

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

F_{net}= 85.41\ N

Explanation:

mass of the bicycle + cyclist = 50 kg

constant speed = 6 km/h

a cyclist coasting down a 5.0° incline

the downward velocity is constant, so net acceleration must be zero

the air drag must be equal to gravitational force downward along the ramp

F_a = mg sin \theta  

now for upward motion

F_{net} = mg sin \theta + air\ drag

F_{net} = mg sin \theta + mg sin \theta

F_{net} = 2 mg sin \theta

F_{net} = 2\times 50 \times 9.8 sin 5^0

F_{net}= 85.41\ N

The slope of a Velocity versus Time graph will tell you the object’s what?
Verizon [17]
Hope it helped you.

My name is Charlie.

Today this question is about science,or chemistry.

A. Acceleration is a correct answer. Acceleration is a rate of change in velocity. 

It change in velocity/change in time. Next, to slope will be indicated by the acceleration.

B Change in position is a incorrect answer.

C. Velocity is a incorrect answer. Velocity is a displacement of an object during a specific unit of time. It can used two measurements are needed to determine velocity. It displacement or by the time. Displacement it includes a direction, so the velocity will also includes a direction. It can used speed with direction. Velocity it can be average velocity or an instantaneous velocity.

Have a great day!

The half-life of Iodine-131 is 8.0252 days. If 14.2 grams of I-131 is released in Japan and takes 31.8 days to travel across the
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Half-life problems are modeled as exponential equations.  The half-life formula is P=P_o\left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{k}} where P_o is the initial amount, k is the length of the half-life, t is the amount of time that has elapsed since the initial measurement was taken, and P is the amount that remains at time t.

P=14.2\left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right)^{\frac{t}{8.0252}}

<u>Deriving the half-life formula</u>

If one forgets the half-life formula, one can derive an equivalent equation by recalling the basic an exponential equation, y=a b^{t}, where t is still the amount of time, and y is the amount remaining at time t.  The constants a and b can be solved for as follows:

Knowing that amount initially is 14.2g, we let this be time zero:

y=a b^{t}

(14.2)=ab^{(0)}

14.2=a *1

14.2=a

So, a=14.2, which represents out initial amount of the substance, and our equation becomes: y=14.2 b^{t}

Knowing that the "half-life" is 8.0252 days (note that the unit here is "days", so times for all future uses of this equation must be in "days"), we know that the amount remaining after that time will be one-half of what we started with:

\left(\frac{1}{2} *14.2 \right)=14.2 b^{(8.0252)}

\dfrac{7.1}{14.2}=\dfrac{14.2 b^{8.0252}}{14.2}

0.5=b^{8.0252}

\sqrt[8.0252]{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt[8.0252]{b^{8.0252}}

\sqrt[8.0252]{\frac{1}{2}}=b

Recalling exponent properties, one could find that  \left ( \frac{1}{2} \right )^{\frac{1}{8.0252}}=b, which will give the equation identical to the half-life formula.  However, recalling this trivia about exponent properties is not necessary to solve this problem.  One can just evaluate the radical in a calculator:

b=0.9172535661...

Using this decimal approximation has advantages (don't have to remember the half-life formula & don't have to remember as many exponent properties), but one minor disadvantage (need to keep more decimal places to reduce rounding error).

So, our general equation derived from the basic exponential function is:

y=14.2* (0.9172535661)^t  or y=14.2*(0.5)^{\frac{t}{8.0252}} where y represents the amount remaining at time t.

<u>Solving for the amount remaining</u>

With the equation set up, substitute the amount of time it takes to cross the Pacific to solve for the amount remaining:

y=14.2* (0.9172535661)^{(31.8)}          y=14.2*(0.5)^{\frac{(31.8)}{8.0252}}

y=14.2* 0.0641450581                    y=14.2*(0.5)^{3.962518068}

y=0.9108598257                              y=14.2* 0.0641450581

                                                        y=0.9108598257

Since both the initial amount of Iodine, and the amount of time were given to 3 significant figures, the amount remaining after 31.8days is 0.911g.
